The authors demonstrate a robust, low dose, high contrast, and ultrahigh resolution patterning process based on sonication assisted development of ZEP520A positive tone resist in both room and cold temperature. The contrast as high as γ ∼ 25 and γ ∼ 9.14 can readily be achieved in 6 °C and room temp...
